23. Perpetual Motion
Transfer
of air
It is an
end-less rubber tube, with projections, on which are fastened thin
rubber bags, and a small weight attached to each bag. The bags are
filled with air when the weight hangs down, and when it comes on top it
presses the air out and through the hollow projection and tube into the
next bag that comes in position.
When placed
over two wheels in water, the bags filled with air should
be lighter and rise, while the other side, with the air forced out,
should sink. Each bag, as it comes into position at the bottom of the
left tube,
will be filled with air expelled from a bag at the top. The weights
will descend a certain amount, one in expanding and the other in
contracting the bag.
